You can either order them from Amazon.com or you can buy them from Remzi bookstores, the only official distributers of Osprey series in Turkey.
But I should note that they are expensive when compared with their volume (they are small introductary books after all).

as i suspected the Essential Histories Book is pretty flawed. Turnbull is oviously biased against the Mongols and he thinks the statue of Sukhebaatar is Sübe'edai Ba'atur...

Today I received my "Mounted Archers of the Steppe 600 BC–AD 1300", "The Sarmatians 600 BC–AD 450" and "Mongol Warrior 1200–1350" books By the way, I found this book but it is very expansive, I will try to find a cheaper one: Warfare in Inner Asian History 500-1800: 500-1800 edited by Nicola Di Cosmo

Not bad for the given time period, but nothing more than a light introduction. And Björn, I see Osprey still hasn't come through on my request for a Ptolemaic release, I'll have to resume my struggle...
